Hi Alex,
Please ignore the below mail.
It looks like, the issue is with the recommended elliptic curves, should
have a property where the degree of the curve is > 160. So all the
curves with curve degree < 160 will be rejected. You should be able to
bypass the condition if you want to use the above curves only.
Regards,
Kiran
